Welcome to our blog "Learn from our Hometown Foods experience".  In this part of the website I will share with you food experiences and knowledge that fueled my passion to create the healthiest foods possible from my neighbors' farm crops.  You will find power point presentations and articles that I have written.  There will be quite a few ideas to share.  I have spent over ten years persistently climbing a huge mountain of information to find the view from the top.  I only have a little way to go.  With your attention we will get there together.

Today's Surprise
